The Kansas Insurance Department has four major functions. These include regulating and reviewing the companies that sell policies in the state to make sure they are solvent and comply with insurance laws and regulations; educating consumers about insurance, such as through publishing brochures and rate guides on all kinds of insurance coverage, providing speakers on numerous insurance topics, and preparing vital public service information to mass media; helping consumers when they have disputes with insurance companies; and licensing resident and non-resident agent-producers to sell insurance products in Kansas.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
